Seems to be a recurring theme on here, so what would be the first 4 or 5 things you'd do on gaining absolute unchallenged power of the UK?

For me it would be
- Repeal all the petty laws like smoking ban, hunting ban etc
- Abolish income tax
- Lock up the theives, vandals, muggers and so forth for minimum of 25 years on third offence
- Limit unemployment benefit to 6 months
- Stop pouring money into banks etc and let them sink or swim

I'd probably cause a revolution in a week, but it would be fun.

My apologies, I didn't realise the laws were to be moderated by yourself.
